Computer Choline
I upgraded the the new powerbook with more ram; 4gb of CAS4 ram replaced the stock 2gb of CAS5 ram. It took the same time to boot, but seems more responsive when restarting apps. I upgraded because it was cheap, and every so often, a few times a month 2gigs wasn’t enough and the whole system came grinding to a halt. I took the old ram and upgraded Marijo’s Macbook, going from 1 to 2 gigs, she noticed a dramatic speed increase. The funny thing is her computer boots in 27 seconds, using Tiger. While mine ( faster, more ram, more video mem ) takess 47 seconds to boot. Maybe a memory check is part of the boot sequence? Who knows, either way I still recommend the upgrade.
